At a public shooting range (in a gun store, for example), is it expected that you pick up your empty shells? Assuming you are not interested in reloading, I would think cleaning the floors would be a job for a store employee.
i think it varies by location.
I don't think I could stand being a member at a range with range officers/safety officers. It's like saying members can't be trusted by themselves (some can't but that's not the point). I sure don't plan on explaining to others what I am or aren't doing (going to pick up brass, etc). My private range we all just have at it and never have any issues, don't need to pay someone to stand there and point out the obvious of not sweeping someone or shooting when others are down range.My range has Range Safety personnel on the range. They keep things clean on the floor in the booth. I tell them that I reload and will pick up my brass when I leave. They acknowledge that and away I go. This is the policy of the range, tell the RS if you want your brass or leave it and they sweep it up.
